Dewitt Leonard, proprietor of an ex-
tensive job printing establishment at
Brattleboro, died Of pneumonia Satur-
day night after short illness. This
will be sad news to many friends
throughout the state, particularly
among the newspaper and printing
fraternity. He was staunch, true
man, an honor to the craft. He was
born at Fair Haven and moved to
Brattleboro in 1875, where he built up
prosperous business. In the pOliti
cal campaign of 1884 he was one of the
leading promoters of the independent
movement in the state, man who had
the courage of his convictions. He
was also prominent as a Mason and
Knight Templar. Mr.. Leonard was
so years old. Mrs. Leonard, who sur
wives him, will be remembered as Cora
Baker, formerly of st. Johnsbury.

order to make sure that her child was
seeing.
Look, she said with an awed face,
"look on Garibaldi; look and never, never,
never forget that you have seen him"
When she turned TO the street again the
carriage had gone by, and the people who
had stood bareheaded and silent where the
hero passed put IN their hats again and
the great crowd melted away.
We followed in our own minds the pro-
gress of the sad cortege through the
t~hronged, hushed streets TO the place, to
the chapel, where the conquerorr lay, as
we had seen him a few hours before with
his crmine robe about him, his crown and
scepter at his head, his good sword at his
side. The chapel was lighted by a blaze
Of waxen tapers, and in each of the four
corners kneeled a cowled monk, praying
for the newly fedged SOU. This was
what the patriot saw; but of what he felt
one can but imagine.
All the wonderful ceremonies that fol-
lowed in quick succession-the funeral of
the king, the death of the pope, and his
lying in state Mt st. Peters, the browning
of tho new king, the advent of the new
pope-I saw with these eyes. But as 1
look back upon these acts of the great
drama of Italy, what 1 see most clearly is
that wonderful white face of G%aribaldi,
with tho heroic past stamped upon its
features, as it lay among the cushions of
the litter. Boston Transcript.

MEXICAN rolitics are likely to become
more confused than ever from the failure
Of congress to act upon the constitutional
amendment permitting the re election of
a president, without an intervening term.
1t is evident, constitution or no constitu-
ton, that Diaz can secure his election to
the place he now fills and he would doubt
less be supported by all the conservative
elements Of the country in so doing. The
Mexican constitution has never exerted
any restraint upon the party in power.
The majority first violates and then
changes the fundamental law, as often as
occasion requires.

Prepare Potatoes for Planting.

Many of our progressive farmers now
practice s%prouting their potatoes, previous
to planting. A well known grower in
The American Garden, claims that pota-
toes for planting early, should be spread
out in single layers in a light place before
the sprouts begin to grow, n at least a
month before planting. Then, instead of
making long tender sprouts, as they do
when stored in quantity in a dark place,
the buds will grow short and thick md be
ready to start vigorously as soon as put in
the ground. Experiments show that
when potatoes are cut for planting the
crop does not ripen so early as from whole
seed; and even very small seed, when pre-
pared as above, will often produce better
results than large ones, because where
there cr1 toe many stalks in a hill the in
crease Of tubers is produced at expense of
size. The only advantage of large seed is
in the greater amour of nourishment
afforded the young plant before he roots

AMERICAN capital has lately been seek
ing investment in land along the various
railroads in Northern Mexico. A Chicago
syndicate has lately purchased 5000, 900
acres in the states of Cohahuila, Durango
and chihuahua, embracing an immense
tract of fine cotton land. Besides this
transaction, probably intended as q basis
for colonization enterprise, the Nor
mons of Utah have made a more question
able move by securing over 200, 900 acres
in the western portion of chihuahua.
Several colony schemes widely advertised
in the United States have proved failures
and all who have engaged in the venture
found themselves grossly deceived, the
lands of the company being worthless
without irrigation and there being no
available water for the purpose. The
laws of Mexico it should be borne in mind,
do not favor the acquisition of land by
foreigners on fair terms, though natural
izatlon is quite an easy and simple pro-
cess.
